It’s only six weeks until this years Terry Fox Run kicks off, so I thought it was a good time to get Terry and his cause back in peo­ples minds.

Terry’s con­sid­ered a national hero by most every Cana­dian.  If by some chance you’re not famil­iar with his story take a peek at the above video.  It’s a great ret­ro­spec­tive put together by the fine folks at ESPN.

This years run will take place on Sun­day, Sep­tem­ber 14th.  If there’s not an event in your area get in touch with the Terry Fox Foun­da­tion to see about orga­niz­ing one.  You’d be hard pressed to find some­one in this coun­try whose lives haven’t been touched by can­cer.  It’s a killer that affects all of us, and every dol­lar helps. Click here to visit the Run’s offi­cial site and find out what you can do to help.

    I used to go to Terry Fox Pub­lic School and we had our walks around the neigh­bour­hood. Older kids would hold hands with the younger ones and the whole school would par­tic­i­pate. I also remem­ber get­ting my first bee sting before this event in one year.
